RedHat: Important: libwpd security update
Summary
Summary
libwpd is a library for reading and converting Word Perfect documents. iDefense reported several overflow bugs in libwpd. An attacker could create a carefully crafted Word Perfect file that could cause an application linked with libwpd, such as OpenOffice, to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code if the file was opened by a victim. (CVE-2007-0002) All users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported fix for this issue. Red Hat would like to thank Fridrich
